Subject: fix-2--gregkh-driver-drivers-clean-up-direct-setting-of-the-name-of-a-kset
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

drivers/net/ibmveth.c: In function `ibmveth_probe':
drivers/net/ibmveth.c:1047: error: structure has no member named `name'
drivers/net/ibmveth.c:1049: warning: ignoring return value of `kobject_register', declared with attribute warn_unused_result

Not a fix!  Leaks k_name!  Needs a kobject release handler!
